is there a place to mount the small first aid kit or just toss it in the glove box?

Hi Tom,

There is an indent in the side of the passenger bench base, facing the door. The kit sits vertically on it's end, and in the indent. It's held in by a strap. You may see a couple of footman loops, or the holes for them. Or you may also see slots cut in the bench base. These are where you thread the strap.

i see the indent for the kit but there are no footmans, dimples for them or holes, there are 3 holes in a triangle pattern in the indent where the kit goes like a bracket mounts there, do you have a pic or is there a pic in 1 of the manuals? thanks

I added the footman loops & the buttons. The footman loops came from Saturn Surplus, the buttons came from NAPA.

Bruce - great shots. Mine has the 3 holes for the rubber bumpers only. The guy before me mounted a seat belt there. We just ordered 2 pullmans so you are picture "perfect". Thanks.

Hard plastic, my NAPA has a carousel full of rubber/plastic stuff..... there only purpose is to prevent chafing. I also made my straps from some od belting I found @ my local surplus dealer, found the gater clip too.
Fer instance, I found the glove box bumpers in a retail pac, 1 dozen (12 pieces) for $2.00!

It looks like a tank commander's binocular case. Not standard equipment for an M37.

That's where I put my binoculars, it's a "Tank Commanders Binocular Holder"
I snagged it from AB a few years ago. Bill Wincapaw did it to his, I stole the idea from him. Frank (one of the few) had a couple, they went fast.
